Abstract
Oral squamous cell carcinoma is a malignant disease that is causing considerable mortality worldwide. Conventional treatment approaches, like surgery, cause destructive alterations in facial appearance and oral function impairments associated with psychological and social functioning. Chemotherapy exhibits low bioaccessibility of the anticancer drugs, multiple drug resistance, higher dose necessities, which elevate toxicities to the normal cells, low therapeutic index, and non-specific targeting. Radiation therapies significantly affect the well-being of the patient and impair the quality of life. Therefore, chemotherapeutics are developed that can either actively or passively target the carcinomas, reduce the adverse side effect, and improve therapeutic efficacy. Innovations in novel drug delivery systems deliver the drugs to the desired site of action with better treatment approaches with reduced toxicities to the normal cells and improve the health and survival rate of the patient. Cancer chronotherapy enhances the treatment proficiency by administration of the drugs at the best time, considering biological timings to improve the treatment profiles. Chronotherapy provides benefits to the current anticancer therapies, with minimum adverse effects to the healthy cells. This review discusses the risk factors for oral carcinomas, targeted therapy by nanocarriers, nanotechnology approaches, the role of circadian rhythm in the management of oral cancer, and advances in controlled drug delivery.
Keywords: Oral squamous cell carcinoma, nanotechnology drug delivery, targeted therapy by nanocarriers, cancer chronotherapy, circadian rhythm, oral cancer.
